Tool Box Products and Service: Last Minute Christmas Idea from Fox Creek Leather
Posted by herseyc on Friday, December 15, 2006 @ 10:11:41 EST (812 reads)

Looking for a last minute gift idea for the biker on your list. Check out the Gloves at Fox Creek Leather.

I have had a pair of their Lined Deer Skin Gauntlet Gloves for awhile now, and they are the best pair of gloves I have ever owned. Just got a pair of their Elk Skin Riding Gloves and they are very nice. Will be doing a review of the Elk Skin Gloves after I get some riding time with them.

So if you are looking for a last minute gift, Check out the riding gloves at Fox Creek Leather

Tool Box Product Reviews: Review of the VIP Motorcycle Cover from Empire Covers
Posted by herseyc on Wednesday, September 20, 2006 @ 06:53:31 EDT (997 reads)

null The guys over at EmpireCovers.com sent me one of their VIP Motorcycle Covers and asked me to check it out. Now just so you guys know I do not use a cover, I have a garage and besides that my bike hardly sets still long enough to be covered. I know there are a lot of folks out there that either do not have a garage or store their bike over the winter, the VIP cover would be a great product for you folks.

Even though I do not personally use a cover on my bike I would recommend the Empire Covers VIP Motorcycle Cover to anyone looking for a cover to protect or store their bike.

The VIP Motorcycle Cover is designed to protect your bike from moisture, dust, and the sun. The manufacturer states that the cover will fit every mass-produced motorcycle up to 1500cc. It fit my Heritage with 20" apehangers just fine with room to spare.

Tool Box Tech Tips: Installing the Bullet Proof BDL Starter Fix
Posted by herseyc on Saturday, June 10, 2006 @ 06:00:00 EDT (1222 reads)

Bullet Proof fix for bikes running rigid BDL belt drives where the starter pinion gear does not alway engage the ring gear.

Wasn't really a problem, more of an annoyance. I love my BDL 3" open belt drive that I installed on my Heritage. I like the look of it, the sound of the clutch plates clanking together, and the sound of the belt whirling around the pulleys at speed - it is bad ass.

The only real problem I have had is that from time to time I would go to start her and when I hit the starter button the starter would just spin. How often this happened usually depended on the number of folks watching. Not really a big deal, rock the belt a bit, hit the button agian and she starts right up. Like I said it is not really a problem, just an annoyance.

Tool Box Tech Tips: Stripped Threads
Posted by herseyc on Saturday, December 03, 2005 @ 06:00:00 EST (1437 reads)

Article by Kent at VirginiaWind.com
If you're going to turn wrenches you will eventually encounter a bolt, nut, or threaded hole that has stripped out threads. You may be able to install a longer screw to engage the deeper undamaged threads, but this only works on applications where there's little need for dependability. You might also be able to replace both the nut and bolt. If you can, this is usually the best way to deal with damaged parts. In some cases, however, you have make a repair by fixing the damaged part.

Tool Box Tech Tips: Keeping Your Bike Looking New (Part 1 of 4)
Posted by herseyc on Thursday, December 02, 2004 @ 12:00:25 EST (1991 reads)

We all love our bikes. And perhaps our proudest moment is when the bike is new and looks its best. A motorcycle, however, is not like a painting in a museum which serves its purpose in a controlled and safe environment. It is subjected to all sorts of abuses including the sun, dirt, and smog, all of which can affect the best motorcycle. But you can keep your bike in new condition just like the priceless artworks protected in a museum. Let's see how.
